Read the following case carefully and answer the questions based upon that :
Sameer, the depressed boy and his family: A ten-year-old boy, was admitted to child psychiatric hospital unit after he attempted to stab himself in the stomach with a medium sized kitchen knife. The suicide attempt was foiled by his mother, who pulled the knife away from her son. This suicide attempt occurred immediately after Sameer had an argument with his father. Sameer felt that his “father hates me” and that “I would be better off dead.” A variety of factors made Sameer vulnerable to suicidal tendencies. Sameer grew up in an atmosphere in which there was intense disagreement between his parents. His father used to drink heavily and when drunk would physically assault his mother. Sameer’s mother was chronically depressed and often said that “life is not worth living,” However she loved her son and felt that because he needed her, she must continue to work and manage the home. Sameer has a serious learning disability, and he struggled to maintain his school grades. He had a private tutor who helped him to overcome some of his sad feelings and shame. Often, however, when teased by his classmates, he thought about ending his life.
